He deserves to be greeted by flatulence, rotten tomatoes, and flung feces.

He is one of the best leaders of our time. He's everything [Redacted] believes himself to be and is not.

But he doesn't need applause. He needs ammo.

Trump won't like being upstaged. Hopefully, this recognition of such a brave man and his country won't lead to less financial help and more delays from us. Hope springs eternal.

proving how it is that really, Russia's already at war with NATO and NATO's at war with Russia.

Russian agitprop's gonna be spewed, but why make it easy?
